• Facility layout design selection
• Multi-attribute decision making method
• Preference selection index method
• Validation

In the present work, a systematic and an alternative multiple attribute decision making methodology is presented for selection of facility layout design selection problems. The proposed methodology is based on Preference selection index (PSI) method. In the proposed methodology appropriate facility layout design is selected for a given application without considering relative importance between facility layout design selection attributes. Two different types of facility layout design selection problems are examined to demonstrate, validate, and to check the reliability of proposed methodology. In addition, subjective cost benefit analysis is performed to study the benefits to cost to the company. Finally, the study has concluded that the facility layout design selection methodology based on PSI method is simple, logical, and more appropriate for solving the facility layout design selection problems.
